This book is a basic, look at Jesus as the central theme of the bible. It give Scriptures that shows Jesus, quoting from the book of Isaiah. showing that there was only one Isaiah, not two as Bible critics say. Jesus call Danial a prophet, Bible critics, say his prophecies were just historical writings, because he wrote them after the fact. it shows the themes of different book. This is a good book for new students of the Bible. The reason I only gave it 4 stars, is it seem to be repetitious at times. But over all, it's a good book for Bible students looking for an introduction to the over all theme and unity of the Bible.
